Despite reports that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel‘s two-year relationship is over, sources tell PEOPLE the couple have not broken up.

In fact, on Monday night they were photographed together while on a getaway in Northern California.

“They’re together,” says an insider. “They’re not breaking up. Any time they spend time apart it’s because they’re working.”

Over the summer, Timberlake, 28, was in Europe promoting his Givenchy fragrance and William Rast clothing line, while Biel, 27, remained in Los Angeles where she starred in Guys and Dolls.

But in January, the actress plans to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro (as part of the star-studded Summit on the Summit expedition to raise awareness for clean water), and Timberlake, says sources, is in talks to join her.

A Rough Patch

Whether the couple will still be together in three months is another story. According to a second source, they are going through a rough-patch

“Things have been a bit up in the air recently,” says the source. “They’ve been spending more time apart – more time with each of their friends, and they’ve been reevaluating [their relationship].”

On Sept. 22, Biel was dateless at the L.A. wrap party for her upcoming film Valentine’s Day, and on Sept. 25, Timberlake partied at Crown Bar in West Hollywood with best friend Trace Ayala.

Adds the source, “Jessica has felt like they haven’t been on the same page – haven’t had the same priorities.”

As for rumors that Timberlake has been getting close to Rihanna, a source close to her insists that the relationship is purely professional: “They’re working together. They were in the studio for her album and they’ll be going back in again.”

wow…. one says that and the daily news prints this ….

After a rocky two-year run, the couple has reportedly called it quits, Us Weekly reports in its latest issue. And it was the “SexyBack” singer who is said to have ended things over the phone “about a month ago.”

While in New York in September to show his William Rast clothing line at Fashion Week, Timberlake was “clearly on the hunt,” snitches a friend.

The singer supposedly dirty-danced with a tall blond in a short black dress at a Manhattan club Sept. 9. The late-night incident is similar to another guys’ night out in June when JT was allegedly spotted making out with a woman at N.Y.C. hot spot Avenue.

Curious clubgoer Lindsay Lohan didn’t hold back when she witnessed the alleged incident and snapped a nearly blacked-out photo, asking, “So dark — where’s jb cheater?”

The troubled starlet eventually claimed her Twitter account had been “hacked,” however an Us source says she panicked after Timberlake “told all his people to ban Lindsay and make her life miserable.”

Timberlake’s attempt to fix his flawed relationship with his curvaceous girlfriend proved unsuccessful as the couple had been having problems long before cheating rumors began.

In July, the Daily News’ Gatecrasher column reported that Timberlake and Biel’s relationship was quickly headed for Splitsville.

“Things don’t look good for them right now — they’ve hit a really rocky spot,” confides a source close to JT, who added that serious problems began back in February during a boys’ trip to Las Vegas.

“Justin had to leave dinner once because Jessica was calling him incessantly. They got into a huge screaming match over the phone about how she’s always ‘checking up’ on him,” said the source. “She’s extremely needy and is always keeping tabs on him.”

The insider wasn’t the only one who thought the actress was a bother.

“All his friends think she’s really annoying,” added the source. “She’s always trying to be one of the guys. She and Justin have no chemistry.”

Now that Timberlake has finally cut the cord on the couple’s ill-fated romance, Us reports that Biel is in “severe denial and won’t accept” the split.

Another source added, “There’s no way of knowing if it’s a firm breakup, because with them it’s so hot and cold.”
